The US Justice Department is reviewing options for prosecuting a Navy Seal
commando for revealing “classified and sensitive” information in his book
about the killing of Osama bin Laden.

Pentagon lawyers and special operations personnel have been reading the book
by Mark Owen, the pseudonym for Matt Bissonnette, a member of the Seal Team
Six raiding party that attacked bin Laden’s compound in Pakistan, after
acquiring a copy last week.

George Little, a spokesman for the Pentagon, said last night that officials
believed there was classified and sensitive information in the book.
